We have quite a few blue "blenders". Sorry I can't split out just the light blues, so here is a link to all the blues: http://www.favoritefabric.com/cgi/co...id_fabric.html

There are two pretty paisley blues here: http://www.favoritefabric.com/cgi/co...y_paisley.html

Go to fabshophop.com. In the search box enter what you want. They will list shops you can go to for your request. :thumbup:

Did you do an ISO (in search of ) in the classified section, maybe you'd get more responses there.

Thanks for the tip. Went to Moda's web site this morning. Everything looks too dark (even the baby blues). I am beginnning to believe the colors as shown on the computer are not always the same as in real life.

Thanks for the information. I was in Hancocks last monday, and all of their blues were too bright. Maybe they have had a new shipment (since Easter is on the way, maybe they will get some pastels in). Thanks again.
